Any audience would be left incredulous at the possibility of Cheeto Benito acquiring normal human qualities like kindness or charity.

(39,499 posts)3. Chump has proved that he can't follow a script
Just ask Mark Burnett, the exec producer for The Apprentice. Chump was impossible to direct because he can't act, nor does he have a clue how to follow a script. During the shooting of The Apprentice, he used to just make stuff up as he went along because he couldn't remember any lines. That might have been OK for a reality show, but it's impossible for a regular production.

not the real people they are portraying.
